If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding...

today was a day of,

looking deeply into the past.

in the next few months

i  hope to be inspired by these images

when it comes to my own personal wardrobe.

the hats, the fabrics, the shapes/cuts and the tights!

how can one not get excited about all of these amazing pieces?

Summer is almost here and it is time for

a new vision to walk out of my closet!

I feel summer creeping in...

Today I decided to take a skirt that was way to long

and make it into something more useful!

{hat = my boyfriends, shirt = Urban Outfitters, skirt = thrifted d.i.y.}

this blue flannel skirt originally fell below my knees

which does not flatter my short figure at all!

so i took the bottom of the skirt

and bubbled it in to the top of the skirt

now it is a fun bubble skirt that makes me feel like

 i just walked out of an 80's romantic comedy!

state of mind...

today's economy is just so bad.

i have been on the job search for months and still

nothing.

I have a degree in commercial photography

i have determination

i have an undying passion for the art world as a whole

and somehow,

nothing.

what is one supposed to do?

i mean we go to college

because we are told

this is what guarantees you a job in that particular field 

and this is what will give you a bright, busy future

and yet,

nothing.

i am ready to be stressed from long work hours

i am ready to commit myself to anything i have knowledge of and a passion for

so give me a job

because i need to support myself 

not only in the future, but

today!

It's time to make some changes...

i have been sitting here,

just sitting here,

listening to the rain.

it sounds nice

and calm

somehow,

it makes me forget,

 about anything negative.

i love the sound of rain.
